    • Penrose Well Temperatures

    Metadata Updated: January 20, 2025

    Penrose Well Temperatures

    Geothermal waters have been encountered in several wells near Penrose in Fremont County, Colorado. Most of the wells were drilled for oil and gas exploration and, in a few cases, production.

    This ESRI point shapefile utilizes data from 95 wells in and around the Penrose area provided by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) database at http://cogcc.state.co.us/ . Temperature data from the database were used to calculate a temperature gradient for each well. This information was then used to estimate temperatures at various depths.

    Projection: UTM Zone 13 NAD27

    Extent: West -105.224871 East -105.027633 North 38.486269 South 38.259507

    Originators: Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) Karen Christopherson
